Anybody - please help! RE: Getting TurbineUser from the User returned by TurbineSecurity?

[Lang, Cliff]

As below, and according to the docs, I should be able to perform the
cast:

     TurbineUser tu = (TurbineUser)TutbineSecurity.getUser(name);

I continually get the null pointer exception:

    java.lang.ClassCastException:
org.apache.turbine.om.security.TurbineUser


Any help -- please!

Subject: Getting TurbineUser from the User returned by TurbineSecurity?



I need to update data in a secondary table whenever the password is
updated in TURBINE_USER.  These tables have redundant data, but must be
there for historical reasons.  

I setup foriegnKey ref from USER_INFO.ID => TURBINE_USER.USER_ID and the
reverse.  What I want to do is return the ObjectKey from user, then use
it to grab my USER_INFO object.  Then update the UserInfo object (ui)
using [ data.getParameters().setProperties(ui); ]   (Is there a better
way to tie these two tables together?)

Torque made me a getUserInfo() function, if I could just get my
TurbineUser set correctly I think I'd be ok.. Here is what I've done,
the last part of the code doesn't work of course.  The TURBINE_USER
table is updated correctly.  

Thanks,  Cliff


I am using the Flux UserAction, doUpdate() --



    public void doUpdate(RunData data, Context context)
        throws Exception
    {
        User user =
TurbineSecurity.getUser(data.getParameters().getString("username"));
        String password = data.getParameters().getString("password");
        data.getParameters().setProperties(user);
        Date now = new Date();
        password = Crypt.crypt(password);
        //user.setModifiedDate(now);
        user.setCreateDate(now);
        user.setLastLogin(new Date(0));
        user.setPassword(password);

        TurbineSecurity.saveUser(user);

// ##########   Up to here all is good    ##########

// ##########   Then I can't get my correct UserInfo object
##########

        TurbineUser tu = (TurbineUser) user;
        UserInfo ui = (UserInfo)tu.getUserInfo();

        data.getParameters().setProperties(ui);
        ui.save();
        
    }
